What I spent 6 months doing was avoiding life


My secret: Since the age of 50, I’m 69 now, and happy returns to the grand old age of 70 in July. I had severe mental health episodes culminating in my latest 3-month stay in Bundoora.

I had 14 sessions of ECT, the consequence of which were loss of memory: What is that password again? and an amazingly strong sense that I was a piece of sh*t. My cure is to disappear from the planet, Don’t try this, I guarantee it will not work.

Another consequence was that I was hacked as Conscious Community Victoria’s admin and the solo admin. I still receive offers from young women to watch their porn videos, anybody knows how to stop it.

So this is what my friends Marc and Angel have to say about it

  1. If you had a friend who spoke to you in the same way that you sometimes speak to yourself How LONG would you allow that person to be your friend.
  2. 2 Why are you, YOU?
  3. 3. In one sentence, what do you wish for your FUTURE self.
  4. 4. What’s something you have that everyone wants?
  5. 5. What’s something NOBODY could ever STEAL from you?
  6. 6. What has the little VOICE inside your head been saying lately?
  7. 7. What’s something NEW you recently learnt about yourself?
  8. 8. What makes you FEEL INCOMPLETE?
  9. 9. What would you do DIFFERENTLY if you knew nobody would JUDGE you
  10. What PROMISE to yourself do you still need to FULFILL?

It hurts a bit, doesn’t it?

The priest who had a Ferrari hits the spot with this one.

Probably why the TV show was so popular.

It’s not that easy to choose sometimes.

It is not a conversation; it is what people do with it.

I had to think about this one.

These religious dudes really knew their stuff.

I took a 6-month break from this recently.

I’ve been here before, but it doesn’t feel the same as last time.

The only. one, how many have we met in our lifetime.

Sounds like going to war.
